was he calling the pentagon? who was in charge? something that they could have asked in another context. they did get a letter from the white house lawyer yesterday which responded at least to that question. but it's benghazi. it's ted cruz raising the speeches and throwing out suggestions completely unsupported by fact that, what if he took money from north korea? from iran? none of that happened. but it was out there to the point where john mccain came to his defense. so as this keeps going, there's a drip, drip, drip. they'll keep finding another speech that they can take. and my concern i think from the administration's perspective also is that you're not going to get a final vote because they'll keep bringing up some other thing. and this thing -- he keeps getting weaker over the recess. >> okay. we've got other news to cover, joe. the nra is back in the news. wayne lapierre called the president a hypocrite. i'll hold off on that one. because i want to get to elizabeth warren. i don't know if you guys saw this. did you see thi

it's a move that plays politics with the pentagon, a move to stop debate and failed confirmation 58-40. it is the first time a defense secretary nominee has needed to clear 60 votes. the move is likely to further strain partisan tensions less than a month into president obama's second term. >> my expectation and hope is that chuck hagel, who richly deserves to get a vote on the floor of the senate will be confirmed as our defense secretary. it's just unfortunate that this kind of politics intrudes at a time when i'm still presiding over a war in afghanistan. >> there are still questions outstanding. i believe that senators have the right to have those questions answered. >> some senators say they want to examine information regarding u.s. consulate attack in benghazi. some say after next week's recess, though, hagel will be ultimately confirmed. >>> during a live streaming google hangout chat thursday president obama defended his administration's use of drones in the war on terror insisting everything the government has done is legal. he did admit the public should know more about how
